Apple’s new Watch gesture controls

It’s Apple patent time and this time we are turning our attention to the different ways you could be one day interacting with your smartwatch. The patent in question is titled Motion and Gesture Input From a Wearable Device. In the patent it talks of a wearable device that can detect light through the skin. So as the tissue in the wrist expands and contracts, the technology will recognize the changes.

The idea is that Apple could potentially track movement from fingers, the hands, your arm as well the wrist. This could open the door for a wider range of controls for a smartwatch that would hopefully make it even easier and quicker to access core Watch features.
